Worm Hunter - is there an app for that?

I'm not sure it would actually work as a computer game, but if you think of it as a challenge, the morning caterpillar hunt can be kind of fun.

I came home to nibbled tomatoes and was able to find 4-5 worm, including, amazingly one down to a 1/8th of an inch long. Of course, I have to take my glasses off to see the little ones.

I guess this will be my morning challenge now ...

That would be great wouldn't it? Just shoot a pic of the plant with your phone and have all the caterpillars show up in iridescent purple or pink!

They got an app for everything else..:)

My dream has always been a garden robot that would creep the rows, shooting caterpillars with bb's or laser beams. We might not be too far from that now. Amazing progress on robots and drones ... maybe 10 years.
